markdown on dreamwidth

[sigmaleph]

if you're using the HTML editor and the first line is !markdown, you can, well, use markdown for formatting. Also, since i've seen these around and was unsure how you do them:

@sigmaleph shows as sigmaleph

@sigmaleph.tumblr.com shows as sigmaleph

(and on HTML apparently those are @sigmaleph and @sigmaleph.tumblr.com )

oh, huh, i think this would also work for linking to masto accounts

edit: the user tag one i mean (idk if there's a way to do it with the markdown syntax).

if i try the html with site=chitter.xyz, it tries to link to www.chitter.xyz/users/sigmaleph, which *almost* works but the 'www' at the beginning breaks it. i don't know if you can make it stop adding it. it works for some instances, though, like mastodon.social

oh, dang, that's inconvenient.
